Hexagonal stand. Hard-paste porcelain painted in a wide variety of enamel colours, iron-red, blue, green, yellow, black, turquoise and pink. The central vase has upright sides, each with a recessed rectangular panel of angular scrollwork and archaistic dragons, set within multi-coloured diaper and floral borders. The galleried rim is encircled by a pendent frieze of petal outline decorated with further dragon scrollwork. The whole is resting on a turquoise fish-roe diaper platform reserved with leaf, scroll and fan-shaped vignettes of flowers and lakeside scenes divided by 'Antiques' and Emblems of the Four Accomplishments, supported on a domed blue-ground base with six ruyi-shaped feet.
